What causes hormonal imbalance?

Hormonal imbalances can be caused by a variety of factors, including stress, poor diet, lack of exercise, age, and certain medications. Some of the most common causes of hormonal imbalances are:

• Stress: Stress can disrupt the body’s natural balance of hormones, leading to an imbalance.

• Poor Diet: Eating a diet high in processed foods, sugar, and unhealthy fats can cause the body to become out of balance, resulting in a hormonal imbalance.

• Lack of Exercise: Not getting enough exercise can lead to a decrease in hormones, resulting in an imbalance.

• Age: As we age, our bodies naturally produce fewer hormones, leading to an imbalance.

• Certain Medications: Some medications, such as birth control pills, can cause a hormonal imbalance.
